KoolWheelz Land Speederz

So, it looks like I have created a monster!

What started out as a couple of Land Speed Record cars (Bluebird and the Bud Rocket Car)
has turned into a whole new series!

The KoolWheelz Land Speederz... Land Speed Record models!

It all started with my KoolWheelz rendition of the 1936 Railton Bluebird...






...
And then, just recently, the Budweiser Rocket Car:







...
And now....
inspired by one of my favorite films: The World's Fastest Indian

I present Burt Munro's 1920 Indian Scout which set a Land Speed record that still stands today!
Fastest "under 1000cc class" with an average speed of 183.5mph and a top speed of 190mph.
In fact, Burt set three world records among his ten trips to the Bonneville Salt Flats.

Anyway, its an awkward little model...very hard to capture the shape in such a small simplified paper model.
I had hoped to keep to 1/64 scale...about the same as the Bud Rocket Car and Bluebird,
but it would just be way too small to build.
So I bumped it up until I was able to build it myself.
Overall length is 9cm (about 3.5")

And then there's the issue of standing...it won't! lol
At least, not very well.
the tires are wide enough that it can be balanced, but it topples over a lot.
Just like the real thing!

I'm including a small Burt Munro standee...just lean the bike against his knees!
